Bush gets Cool Reception

Bush broke with his usual policy of speaking only to pre-selected groups of military personnel today and reportedly received a very cool reception.

Bush's speech, hosted by the Council on Foreign Relations, was the second in a series of four to answer criticism and questions about the U.S. presence more two and a half years after the war started. He spoke to a group of foreign policy experts, many of whom have been critical of his policies. They gave him a cool reception. Some in the audience interrupted to applaud when Bush said the U.S. would not run from Iraq, but most sat stoically during the entire speech.

I guess they were too polite to actually boo.
